I got to see the Man of Steel SDCC exclusive up close, and it looks much better in person.

I know a lot of collectors like to open their figures, but I'm a sucker for packaging, and the light-up feature in the Man of Steel packaging is really cool. Pressing a button in the front of the diorama makes Superman's eyes light up, then a split-second later, another spot near Zod's feet lights up with a sizzling sound effect. It's a great feature.

Out of package, these figures are probably not worth $50. But the diorama has some nice extras that make it worth a second look.

Noel Neill was a redhead when she played Lois on the 1950s TV series "Adventures of Superman."

Yep... and I believe in the old Fleischer toons she may have been a redhead (not sure, would have to look it up). I do know she had been a redhead in much of the comics (if my memory serves me correctly, she was a redhead at least in the 80's and 90's...was she a readhead when they married??).

Red/Auburn or whatever... they've drawn her with this color hair over different time periods and she's also (mostly) been drawn with jet-black hair (think Superman The Animated Series). I fail to see how someone could say that "movie-makers are getting even the smallest details wrong" when talking about a character's hair color that has changed much over the years. Not like there is a definitive hair color for Lois. Heck, Bruce Wayne had Jet black hair and blue eyes, but I don't think Christian Bale has either of those?! Now if they cast a person with blond hair to play Superman then that would be blatantly wrong.Oliver Queen is very much a blonde haired guy in comics and cartoons, but the guy playing him on ARROW is more of a brown haired guy than blonde.

Zod in shackles. He's in the non-armored suit with plastic chains around his neck and arms, with a scar down the side of his head. Nobody new was listed on the back of the card. Anybody else seen this?

I have a pic on my phone but I don't know how to get it onto here. MODS?
